Computational Symmetry in Computer Vision and Computer Graphics

In the arts and sciences, as well as in our daily lives, symmetry has made a profound and lasting impact. Likewise, a computational treatment of symmetry and group theory (the ultimate mathematical formalization of symmetry) has the potenti...

Multiple View Geometry in Computer Vision

A basic problem in computer vision is to understand the structure of a real world scene given several images of it. Techniques for solving this problem are taken from projective geometry and photogrammetry. Here, the authors cover the geome...

AnimalTA: A highly flexible and easy‐to‐use program for tracking and analysing animal movement in different environments

Abstract Computer programs for video tracking of animal movement are evolving increasingly efficient, using complex algorithms or artificial intelligence systems. Despite the consequent progress in this field, researchers still face some fu...

Deeply Exploiting Long-Term View Dependency for 3D Shape Recognition

Recognition of 3D shapes is a fundamental task in computer vision. In recent years, view-based deep learning has emerged as an effective approach for 3D shape recognition. Most existing view-based methods treat the views of an object as an ...
